Crushed glass?

Looks like some kind of quartz crystals.

This image (for me) needs a subject. What should we be looking at? You know, specifically. IMHO

Different

Sugar or salt crystals? There are some interesting shapes. Maybe if a few were isolated on a contrasting background we could see more detail. Nice focus.

are these sugar crystals?

Quartz crystals?

looks like sugar crystals or broken glass. I would like to see this with the focus on the larger pieces in front.

Crystals? A mineral? Wish there were a bit more DOF, the bottom is not in focus now. And a bit more contrast, it seems a bit washed out now.

Salt or sugar crystals?
06/23/2007 03:16:41 AM
Shattered glass

Salt crystals? Just a wild guess, really I have no idea what this is :)
06/23/2007 12:32:00 AM
Could this be grains of ocean salt
06/22/2007 02:17:53 AM
Just close up isn't enough to make an interesting picture. You still need a subject, focus, good contrast, etc.
06/21/2007 10:06:25 PM
glass/ice??
06/21/2007 07:36:44 PM
salt ?
06/21/2007 01:38:33 PM
Geode/crystal formation of some kind. Lighting is not so good. The whole thing needs to be quite a bit brighter, but you've already got a pretty blown out spot over there.

a geode maybe?
06/21/2007 09:04:44 AM
maybe salt
06/21/2007 06:03:33 AM
Crystals such as quartz or something similar. I find the bit on the bottom a bit distracting. Maybe a different crop to cut that section out.

Looks like salt or crystals or something like that.
